Construction of a medicinal leech transcriptome database and its application to the identification of leech homologs of neural and innate immune genes

1 Jan 2010

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The medicinal leech, Hirudo medicinalis, is an important model system for the study of nervous system structure, function, development, regeneration and repair. It is also a unique species in being presently approved for use in medical procedures, such as clearing of pooled blood following certain surgical procedures. It is a current, and potentially also future, source of medically useful molecular...
